Last month, Hartford’s very own Asylum Quartet visited WNPR's Where We Live to talk about and perform some music.
Together, saxophonists Joseph Abad, Tony Speranza, Max Schwimmer, and Andrew Barnhart filled our studio with the sounds of Alexander Glazunov and Guillermo Lago. They also delivered a very special rendition of our theme song, "Flim," by Aphex Twin, arranged by West Hartford-based composer Ryan Jesperson.
The response to their performance was tremendous:
Listening to @abadjoey and the Asylum Quartet on @wherewelive. Such an excellent morning commute!

@gideonstrumpet @heldermira @wherewelive Nice, huh? @colinmcenroe calls it the "Love Theme From Where We Live."

Today, we’re excited to announce the ensemble’s new studio recording of the “Love Theme From Where We Live” (thanks, Colin, for the name suggestion). We love it and hope you do, too.
